The proposed bill would amend current statutes to establish a new youth charity special plate and create the Youth Charity Special Plate Fund. Under the new provisions, if a person pays a $32,000 implementation fee by December 31, 2025, the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) is required to issue the youth charity special plates, which the payer will also design, subject to ADOT's approval. The bill specifies that the fee for obtaining or renewing these plates will be $25, with $8 allocated as an administration fee and $17 as an annual donation to the newly established fund.

Additionally, the bill outlines the administration of the Youth Charity Special Plate Fund, which will be managed by the Director of ADOT. The first $32,000 collected in the fund will be reimbursed to the entity that paid the implementation fee. The Director is also tasked with allocating fund monies annually to a qualified 501(c)(3) organization that meets specific criteria aimed at improving the lives of youth in Arizona. The bill includes technical changes to existing statutes, such as updating section references and ensuring that the fund's administration costs are capped at 10% of the total fund annually.
